Leaping

I have been learning to leap. Last month my seminar tutor gave us an article by Robert Bly to read and discuss. In the article he writes about leaping from the conscious to the unconscious in our writing and allowing ourselves to take risks in the way we use images and metaphors. I don’t know if I have actually managed to leap or not but the article made me think and certainly provoked a lot of poetry activity. You can read some of the results of that activity here.
